    Er, I must note that the colon style here is not consistent with the rest 
of the properties, i.e. there's space before the colon here, while in other 
cases there's none.

    s/mac/MAC/.

    Descriptions should consistently start with a lower case, I think...

    s/phy/PHY/.

    Don't think that's a good value, unless this is only a placeholder.

    I'd rather label ut phy2...

    This is the default "compatible", i.e. there's no need to specify it, IIRC.
